Fukai Mori [2 of Us] is out! I bought it off iTunes today. It's so nice, god I love Van's voice.

Next week: Honjitsu wa Seiten nari! I'm curious about how they'll arrange this one...



Haven't had a chance to listen to Tooku made properly yet, dear life please stop being busy.

Oh, today I also discovered that there's a special site for the project! This should make it easy to keep up with what's going on: http://d-a-i.com/2ofus/

I really like Tookumade! This project is giving me all of the nostalgia feels

I never had cause to imagine what an acoustic version of Honjitsu wa seiten nari would sound like but I'm really digging it tbh!!!

Non-studio-album songs: Sariyuku Yuube, CARNAVAL, under the moon, believe in you

THAT should get you started. Sorry to dump such a list on you, I was in the mood to browse their discography lol.


I'm super late but I'll give these a listen! And the new 2 of us releases are on Canadian iTunes! My interest is piquing. Honjitsu wa seiten nari and tooku made are actually two of my fav DOA songs.
Omg the chorus of the acoustic tooku made is making me nostalgic and I hate acoustic songs.

Oops, time to catch up a little!

I LOVED Desire, the new version is great. Week! was released last week and Mahou no Kotoba ~Would you marry me?~ came out today; both were nice, but not the greatest. Next week, we're getting under the sun!



I'm surprised I'm actually looking forward to this. I never really liked the original version, but they've apparently tinkered the melody a little, and the guitar arrangement sounds great!

On one hand, I'm not surprised at all because I knew from the beginning that the 2 of Us tracks were bound to be released in physical format sooner or later. On the other hand, I am very surprised because THERE IS SO MUCH?! Almost the same number of tracks will come out on the CDs as in the iTunes pre-releases, and then the live album! Now I'm just sad, I want everything but I probably can't afford any of them.

Oh, and next week's 2 of Us iTunes release is We are.

^ It's giving me chills, it's so perfectly stripped down. So many good new versions on the 2 of Us albums, I'm loving Kimi ga Inai Mirai, rumble fish, Tasogare, Mysterious Magic... Disappointed in Umareyuku Monotachi e though: the original can give me a good cry on the right day but this version just left me cold, lowering the key and stripping away the instumentation just took all the intensity out. But still, so many good [2 of Us] songs!

Now waiting for the live album to be released, I'm super excited for it!

Limited single coming! ハレルヤ / エレジー (Hallelujah / Elegy) single will be sold only at their live venues and via their fanclub's mu-mo shop, in CD-only and CD+Goods editions. Release date is July 7th.

Promo pic


Cover

1. ハレルヤ
2. エレジー
3. One or Eight [2 of Us]
4. 翼の計画 [2 of Us]
+ Instrumental versions of all the songs

Honestly, I'm most excited about the new version of Tsubasa no Keikaku. I hope someone will upload the single asap after it's released!

Ahh, the new single was also released on iTunes, good thing they didn't make it too exclusive! I'm kinda surprised at the new songs, the production is so... light and acoustic? I like both songs fine enough, but I honestly prefer their normal sound. I like Elegy more out of the title tracks (the melody is so lovely!), but it sounds like a 2 of Us remake... which is fine, but I'd love to hear "the original version". One or Eight is... eh, I never cared for the song anyway. I've always loved Tsubasa no Keikaku more than life itself though, and I'm happy to hear that the 2 of Us version is as good as I had hoped it would be!

I just discovered that Eir Aoi covered Fukai Mori on her latest single! It's a good cover, very faithful to the original, but not quite AS good as the original. Check it out here:



This got me thinking: anyone know of any other covers of DAI songs? The only other one I know is D-LITE from BIGBANG's cover of Hi no Ataru Sakamichi (which you can check out here), which I actually really love; it's cool to hear a male vocalist singing the song, and D-LITE has a very pleasant voice!

New single coming! It's a double A-sider, Alive / Iron Hornet, and it will be released on June 28th, in CD+DVD and CD only editions. Alive is produced by Hiroyuki Sawano, not sure about Iron Hornet. Teaser for Alive:



Covers and tracklist:


CD+DVD


CD

CD:
01. Alive
02. Iron Hornet
03. Alive (Instrumental)
04. Iron Hornet (Instrumental)
05. ハレルヤ (Hallelujah) Band Arrange Version

DVD:
Alive MV

Is this the first time Do As Infinity has worked with a guest producer like this? Alive sounds nice, so I'm looking forward to the single.

Also, Do As Infinity will be touring in Latin America in July and in Taiwan in August; I hope everyone in these areas who's interested has heard the news and will get to see them!

The new song somehow reminds me of their older stuff, which I totally love. I'm also liking Van's vocals! Her vocals on "BRAND NEW DAYS" were just...no.
